I normally run LMS 7.9.2 under picoreplayer on a Raspberry pi, accessing my music collection which is on a QNAP NAS. I use my IPhone 6s, a Squeezebox Touch and a Duet to listen. I also have an instance of LMS running on that NAS, (and just installed QLogitechMediaServer out of curiosity), but dont normally use it.
I have thought about remote listening on iPhone via internet while away from home, and manually set up port forwarding and a free domain name for a couple weeks a few years, which worked. I have however seen the thread strongly advising against opening up LMS ports to internet, because of security exposures.
My question is - the recent MyQNAPCloud service allows remote access to a QNAP NAS, allegedly securely. Does anyone know if this can be used to stream music from LMS to iPhone?
(Second question - if there are simply instructions somewhere on how to achieve this via VPN using a TalkTalk router, Id be grateful for a pointer! )
Many thanks in advance
